Re: What are you wearing today?

I'm off today and am not planning on leaving the house (the weather is just...so cloudy and humid ugghhh) so I'm not wearing anything. I washed my face with a cleanser, put on a mask and am about to put on a moisturizer and maybe a lipbalm to tame the dryness but no makeup

I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced foundation pilling with the Radiance primer? I usually use a silicone-based primer (Tarte Clean Slate Poreless at the moment) and am hoping to move away from that, but I've never had as much pilling with foundation application as I did this morning. And I'm a light hand with foundation.

Re: What are you wearing today?

I'm wearing the Radiance Primer for the first time with a foundation I wear every single day for months now (UD Naked) and I did notice that my foundation is not smooth. I'm not sure it's pilling as you describe it but it did strike me as odd because Naked goes on pretty smooth and controls oil and with radiance primer today it's not smooth and I got very oily very fast- which is odd because that's exactly the opposite of what a primer should be doing!

Re: What are you wearing today?

Just a week or so -- I got it as one of the 100pt deluxe samples with a recent order. I was really hoping to love it, but I don't know. I'm not impressed. My foundation balling up on me was pretty obnoxious, but it didn't do anything to smooth out the trouble areas around my nose, either.

I could see using it as a standalone product over moisturizer when I skip foundation, but I've not been impressed with its performance as a primer.

OK, I'm really impressed by the Bobbi Brown Oil-Free Tinted Moisturizer. When I took off my makeup, I was shocked at the amount of color I was taking off.

I have enough in my sample for the rest of the long weekend (YAY!). I'll re-evaluate once i've used up the sample. I don't see myself wearing a tinted moisturizer during the week (aside perhaps from those 100+ degree and humid days), but it could be a great weekend look for me (and a way to preserve my HG discontinued foundation!).
